Established combustion method meets innovative technology to ease your work routine
The determination of nitrogen and protein content is a key parameter for the food and feed industry to evaluate raw materials and processed goods as well as to qualify products for legislative purposes. The combustion method according to Dumas allows fast sample analysis without using hazardous chemicals.
This webinar shows the Dumas combustion method. You will see how this method works and what applications are possible. Easy sample preparation in combination with a short analysis time maximizes your sample throughput, whilst allowing you to perform other tasks.
The guest speaker Jon Griffin from Kent Scientific Services will focus on how nitrogen analysis can be used to determine the composition of foods and feeding stuffs - along with the importance of accuracy, tolerances and uncertainties in nutrition analysis. You will learn how to deal with the legislation, the importance of robustness and reliability when commissioning equipment.
Join the webinar and learn how to simplify the work routine in your lab!
